Happy Tattoosday and Use Your Common Sense Day

Happy Tattoosday! You know what that means, right? It means Ink Master comes on tonight. Of course I won't be watching it until tomorrow or something because I don't stay up that late on work nights. But go Dreamy Don!!! This means I will have to stay clear of Twitter until I watch the episode unless I want someone to spoil it and tell me if Don went home or not.

So sometimes I check my Horoscope on Yahoo! and/ or my Horoscope app on my phone. I don't like live by it or anything but sometimes the horoscope makes complete sense with what is going on in my life. Today, my horoscope according to Yahoo!, is telling me to try not to spill out my whole life story today lol. Well this thing knows me well because it says I have a hard time closing my mouth once I get started- no dirty meaning behind this. And then my horoscope app says that someone who really knows how to push my buttons is trying to bring out the worst in me or something and I shouldn't allow myself to get drawn into a debate or an argument. Well, I'm pretty sure I know who that person is and he knows how to push my buttons and we get into heated arguments. So, my horoscopes advice today is to close my mouth and ignore this person. Ha we'll see. By the way... I'm a Cancer.

I was just browsing through my emails and found one from Keep.com. One of the items it showed me to look at is from Nordstrom. I like it and kind of feel like it would be a good fit for a coffee mug for me. That doesn't mean I'm going to buy it but I thought I'd share it with you all:

And onto the next random subject!

Yesterday, this guy told me he wanted to check out my blog and so I gave him the url. He was surprised at how much he actually enjoyed my posts. He thought he'd be totally bored but actually found my posts entertaining. Once he read a post on the front page of my blog, he said it was so good that he kept going. He didn't read all of my posts but he did read all of the posts on the front page. And on Friday, I received a comment on one of my posts that definitely brought a smile to my face. This follower told me she likes how real I am. I'm not afraid to cuss or anything and she says my blog has originality written all over it. This is what makes my day. It reassures me that I am doing something right. That I am connecting to people, entertaining people, leaving them wanting to come back for more. Sometimes, and I know you've all been there, I wonder if my rambling posts are just that- rambling posts. But then I get comments like these and those thoughts vanish from my mind- or at least temporarily. I keep it real in my blog. I type as if I'm speaking to you over the phone or in person. I cuss, I can be inappropriate, I babble, and vent. I'm just being me.

Comments

Isn't it great when people want to check out your blog?! I keep business cards on me so I can give them to people when the topic comes up. I also write using my own voice and opinions and I feel it makes our blogs that much more exciting! Keep up the good work :)PS - I love ink master! I don't take time to watch much TV but I definitely enjoy that show!

Baby is the Size of: a cauliflower! Baby #2 should weigh 2.5 lbs and measure 16" long. My gut feeling has been that her birth weight will either be 7 lbs 14 oz or 8 lbs 2 oz. At my ultrasound last week, Rhylan was weighing 2 lbs 11 oz which puts her in the 67th percentile (so she is on the big side). I have another ultrasound in 5 weeks and we should know her estimated birth weight at that appointment!!!

Weight Gain: 23 lbs. I'm trying to let this go but it is so dang hard. At this point in my pregnancy with Rory, I had gained 22 lbs but I also started off 11 lbs heavier this time than my pre-pregnancy weight with Rory (I try to say most of the 11 lbs is from my boobs permanently going from a B cup to a D cup though).

What??? We're actually doing a monthly update on time? It must be a miracle! On another note, I can't believe we have a 9 month old!!!

9 Months Old
Rory's 9 month appointment isn't until next week, so we won't know how big you have gotten until then.

You like to swing your toys in Audrey's face/ at her and you think it is so funny (you don't do it in a mean way, trust me, mommy wouldn't stand for that).

Ah, it's Monday. I have been so bad at blogging lately and I'm sorry for that. Life has been so extremely busy lately and I have so much to update y'all on and share with you and so little time to do so. Bare with me here.

I thought I'd do a little post on house hunting since I have now been down this road of house hunting twice. I'll admit, there are tons of ups and downs and places in between. It can be very emotional and stressful at times but you have to keep your head up, stay positive, and know that it will all work out in the end. So to help you out, I'm going to list a few tips for y'all.

1. Find the Right Realtor for You
Finding the right realtor is key in starting your house hunting journey. You want someone you feel like is actually listening to you and not pressuring you into buying a specific house or pushing you to look at completely different houses that don't meet your requirements. And don't be afraid to speak your mind. My re…
